I just noticed this in our product builds now too. What was the solution? I imagine this is going to affect everyone that includes JDT in their product, no?

My prior builds referenced the platform first and the release train second. This build didn't do that. Reinstating that
order makes the problem go away.

No.

Don't think it's p2's nor OTDT's fault and it will work OK when installing. It fails when using tools like Buckminster
or Tycho to populate the target platform since they don't use the SAT resolver and are unaware of true capability
resolution. Highest version wins and that's it.
